bircni 0cd0e52a24 fix!: guard against two runner processes sharing one runner file (#1099)
Starting two runner daemons with the same `.runner` file makes both present an
identical UUID+token, so Gitea treats them as one runner and they cancel each
other's jobs. This adds a non-blocking advisory lock on a sibling
`<runner-file>.lock`: the daemon (and `register`) acquire it at startup, and a
second process on the same host fails fast with a clear error instead of silently
interfering. The OS releases the lock when the process exits — including a hard
kill — so no stale lock is left behind. Legitimate multi-runner setups are
unaffected since each already uses its own `runner.file`.

Note: this covers the common single-host case; two hosts sharing a copied
`.runner` (e.g. over NFS) would still need server-side detection in Gitea.
